This is a remote position. You may be located anywhere in India or the rest of the world (with at least a 4‑hour time overlap with the Indian timezone).\n\nAbout Us\nMiranj is a strategic web design and development studio. We've been in business for over 15 years and have consciously remained a small specialised team with a clear purpose. We are laser-focused on the web — no mobile/native apps, no product design, no digital UI/UX, no trying to imitate a full-service agency. We've been creating inclusive, accessible, ceaseless, clear, performant, future-friendly websites and with each passing year, we want to keep getting better at our craft.\n\nWe work directly with clients (no outsourced assignments or communicating via intermediaries) and offer them a turnkey web solution — strategy, design, development, support, and hosting. We've worked in domains such as media & publishing, manufacturing, conferences, recruitment, and even for other design studios. However, what sets us apart is our priority towards projects that are meaningful and serving society. Nearly two-thirds of our work is in the education (e.g. universities, science outreach, etc.) and non-profit (policy & advocacy, health, public interest campaigns, philanthropy, etc.) space.\n\nWe're incorporated in New Delhi but in practice, we're a fully remote organisation. Our team members are distributed between India and the Netherlands. And we occasionally share our learnings with the web community at conferences around the world.\n\nOur Expectations\nAs a senior web developer, you should be comfortable with —\nThe entire web stack i.e. front-end (HTML/CSS), back-end, writing templates and working with modern JavaScript.\nTaking ownership of project repositories and ensuring stability over release cycles.\nWriting code for different & diverse application frameworks (in PHP / JavaScript etc).\nEnsuring low technical debt by catching and refactoring breaches.\nCreating robust & modular templating architectures.\nAutomating processes by leveraging build tools and pipelines.\nHandling, manipulating and migrating data sets between environments.\nLeveraging shell scripts & command-line tools.\nDeploying projects on servers.\nWorking with designers & managing developer hand-offs.\nWriting progressively enhanced HTML, CSS, JavaScript and adopting third-party libraries.\n\nWe believe the following traits will play nicely —\nYou favour a long-term relationship over a short stint\nYou are eager to take charge and get stuff done\nYou are open to learning and can pick up new technologies by reading documentation & tutorials\nYou value your commitments\nYou are good at communication, including writing\nYou appreciate clean, readable code and honour coding style/standards\nYou like sharing ideas on how to make work more fun, meaningful and fulfilling\nYou believe that an organisation should be run sustainably and with financial prudence\n\nYour Responsibilities\nYour work at Miranj will involve —\nLeading web projects and owning client relationships.\nUnderstanding key project requirements and architecting robust technical solutions.\nTranslating designs into CMS templates, building custom features and plugins that extend CMS functionality.\nPerformance optimisation through caching, image optimisation and other strategies.\nMaintaining, supporting, refactoring and upgrading past projects (typically, LAMP stack).\nCollaborating closely with external partners in a project team.\n\nWhat's on offer\nOpportunity to work with modern systems and software, with continuous learning\nProjects that are meaningful and socially-conscious\nMonthly team hangout, which we're told are fun\nMedical insurance (if you're based in India)\nA sustainable pace of work (5‑day work week and up to 40 days of paid time off each year)\nA Mac for work use\nSupport for speaking at conferences\nA culture that values reason and debate over authority; autonomy over control; slow and considered decision-making over fast and hasty; and a healthy work-life balance\nA healthy compensation, proportionate to the value you can bring to us\n\nHow to apply\nDO NOT submit a CV/resume — if you do, there's a good chance you'll be overlooked. Instead, we're interesting in a descriptive cover letter which includes:\nA short introduction about yourself.\nYour reasons for seeking a new opportunity, and your expectations from the same.\nWhat makes you interested in working at Miranj, and how do you think Miranj will benefit from your addition\nWhat are your thoughts on the job role — what aspects do you find interesting, and what might you find challenging\nDemonstrate evidence of past work (commercial/hobby projects) and link to your Github profile.\n\nPlease add anything else that might be of interest to us.
